Answer:
15 sodas will give a maximum profit of 83
Step-by-step explanation:
For quadratic ax^2 +bx +c, the maximum occurs at x = -b/(2a). Here, we have ...
a = -1/3, b = 10
x = -b/(2a) = -10/(2(-1/3)) = 15
The profit for sale of 15 sodas is ...
P(15) = (-1/3s +10)s +8 = (-1/3(15) +10)(15) +8 = 5(15) +8 = 83
The company would earn a maximum of 83 from sale of 15 sodas.
